Dear Colleagues,

The journal Language Learning & Techonology
http://llt.msu.edu

Telecollaboration is defined as the application of global 
communication networks within foreign and second language education.

The editors are primarily interested in the following themes:

* Theoretical research on telecollaborative projects
* Cross-cultural and cross-linguistic studies of telecollaborative 
 partnerships
* Developmental studies of language learning in telecollaboration
* Ethnographic investigations of telecollaboration
* Investigations focusing on differences in internet communication 
 tools as used in telecollaborative partnerships, e.g. email 
 discussion, chat, knowledge forum/threaded discussion, and 
 web-publication
* Meta-commentaries on organizational aspects of telecollaboration
* Social and institutional dimensions of telecollaborative partnerships
* Theoretically-informed dialogues between instructors in 
 telecollaborative partnerships

Please send 250-word abstracts to Julie Belz at jab63psu.edu by Nov. 15, 2001.
